The Past by Marcus Anthony Lyrics
[Verse 1: Marcus Anthony]
Yea im always real hyper with the cypher, make my future brighter
No im not a biter, just a california fighter
A writer, I put everything I know up on the pad
It started out talking trash about the dad
Now im on a different level I don't give a fuck
Even though im bleeding, im changing up the season of grieving
N leaving the fact that I used to be wounded
Thinking why did he do this, man im so clueless
I used to be the rudest cat on the block
Cuz he's coming n goin is he my dad or not
But nowadays its all gravy cuz I have closure
No father figure to tell me not to smoke the dosia
[Hook: Marcus Anthony]
Im in the past but the past is the past
It made me who I am so I guess im looking back
Im facing all the demons, n grab'm by the neck
And telling'm to respect, I gotta do this reflection x2
[Verse 2: Marcus Anthony]
I was only 9 nine years old when I momma told she was leaving
I didn't understand it n didn't wanna believe it
She said marcus, im goin to the store and ill be back at nine
I come to find she was lying, had me really cryin
Grandma backed her up said she really would be back in time
I tried to delete the feelings but couldn't kill'm
Just a younger boy as im looking at the ceiling
In the consolers office, thinking I got it pretty bad
Thinking bout how it started with dad, whats up with that
But momma came back, and she changed it around
18 months quit drugs quit smoking, have to joking
To say I wasn't proud now I say it loud whats up
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Marcus Anthony]
So in conclusion don't have a contusion about your past
Just find a good outlet, to deal with the mess and the stress
Yea its a pest but its how you deal with it
Nobodies life is terrific, to be specific
You might be born into wealthy fam with a lotto cars
But find yourself behind bars
Cuz daddies to busy to teach you the rights from wrong
Everybodys got problems why I write the songs
Yea im always real hyper with the cypher, make my future brighter
No im not a biter, just a california fighter
A writer, I put everything I know up on the pad
It started out talking trash about the dad
Now im on a different level I don't give a fuck
Even though im bleeding, im changing up the season of grieving
N leaving the fact that I used to be wounded
Thinking why did he do this, man im so clueless
I used to be the rudest cat on the block
Cuz he's coming n goin is he my dad or not
But nowadays its all gravy cuz I have closure
No father figure to tell me not to smoke the dosia
